31 Mar 2021 / Suez Canal, Egypt
The Suez Canal Authority (SCA) has advised the following arrangements regarding transits to clear the backlog of waiting vessels that built up while the Canal was blocked by to the grounded container vessel:
SOUTHBOUND CONVOY
NORTHBOUND CONVOY
Convoys are subject to change by the SCA in line with navigation considerations to speed up the transiting of all waiting ships. Convoys in both directions are running around the clock until the backlog is cleared.
UPDATE - 18:00 hours local time:
According to the latest available information from the SCA, a total of 190 vessels have transited the Canal in the past three days (74 on 29 March, 34 on 30 March and 82 today).
Arrangements for transits of vessels waiting at Port Said and Suez tomorrow (1 April) are as follows:
NORTHBOUND CONVOY
- At 05:00 hours local time on 1 April, about 15 ships will enter the Canal and wait at Great Bitter Lakes anchorages.
- At 09:00 hours local time on 1 April, 30 or more ships will enter the Canal for a free run until exiting from Suez.
The SCA has not yet advised transit arrangements for tomorrow’s southbound convoy.
